About Oleh
Oleh is an adventurous and kind-hearted student from a small town in Ukraine, where his days often begin near the bustling railway station where his parents work. Despite his small-town roots, Oleh has big dreams and an eagerness to explore the world. He loves spending quality time with family and friends, often sharing stories and laughter that brighten his day.
At school, Oleh is a star student with a passion for math, computer programming, and biology. His leadership skills shine as he was elected vice president of his freshman class, and he’s an active member of his school’s sports club. Whether he’s solving equations or cheering on teammates, Oleh brings energy and enthusiasm to everything he does.
Oleh is equally committed to his community. He volunteers with “Step Forward Ukraine” and serves on the city youth council, where he helps improve public life through environmental, educational, and cultural initiatives. One of his favorite activities is mentoring younger students and helping them adapt to new schools—a role that reflects his caring and supportive nature. When it comes to his future, Oleh’s eyes are set on a career in computer programming. “I want to create websites that are easy to use and make the user experience even better!” he says with excitement. He’s already honing his skills through self-study and online courses, showing a level of dedication that sets him apart.
Oleh can’t wait to start his exchange year in the U.S. and is especially excited to connect with his host family. “I want to learn more about your traditions and everyday life,” he says. While he’s read about American culture and seen it on TV, Oleh is ready to experience it firsthand and create lifelong memories with his host family. If you’re looking for a thoughtful, driven, and inspiring student to welcome into your home, Oleh is ready to bring his curiosity and kindness into your family’s life!
